ok, bear with me here as this is the first time I have ever done this...I thought I had all the bolts out of the waterpump, but it seems like its not going to come off at all. After looking, it seems as though I only have 5 bolts (4 long ones and a shorter one) but I have been looking and I dont see the 6th bolt I am supposed to remove. I know this is a tough question, but can anybody give me a little help as to where I am going wrong?? TIA.

 

There ARE 6 bolts that hold on the water pump. 3 on each side. Look around,you'll find it. They're in the same location on each side.

There are 6 bolts...3 on the left and 3 on the right. Look real good...one on the left side is kind of hard to see.

 

you probably missed the bottom bolt on the drivers side. It's also a bracket for the air pump. You have to take the nut off, then remove the pump, then you can take the bolt off.

 

What he said, I missed this the first time around too.

...or you missed the one that is slightly hidden by the p/s pump pulley...

 

don't forget about the one behind the power steering pully! that one is a huge PITA but you can get it out without removing anything... just takes the right extensions and lots of patience.

 

ok, i missed the one hidden by the air pump bracket...the problem is I cant get one of the bolts off the bracket to get to the last bolt for the waterpump...its the 9/16'' bolt that is kind of recessed that is giving me problems...I dont know how I am going to get it off..Thanks guys.

 

Should not be hard. Remove the AIR pump first to get to the bracket.

 

i can get to the bolt, i just cant seem to break it loose...thats the problem. I cant get any leverage on it to force it off. I guess I'll just keep tryin..

hey Rich, Im gonna be finishing it up tomorrow morning if you can help...Check FA for details..

 

socket + ratchet + 4 ft piece of pipe. Works wonders, especially for breaking head bolts loose.
